Moto in WNC?

I'm in Chapel Hill, and pretty much ride NCMP up in Henderson. I haven't been yet, but want to try Brushy Mountain - looks promising -

not a ton out that way that i know of. have you tried lookin in TN? i know a few moto buds and i went there for a wedding at the biltmore and we were thinking about taking our bikes to find a track to ride at but there wasnt much out that way. there are few tracks North, south and east of charlotte. not too much west in the direction of asheville. there is cathys creek in forest city, but you'll have to wait for a JMX race or organize a practice to rent it out, as they rarely have open practice. maybe a couple times a year. there might be more out that way that im not aware of..

I went to school in Boone, NC and I found a lot of riding. You just have to ask and try and make friends with locals.

I was fortunate enough to meet some extremely nice people in Boone. Travis, Tanner, and Trevor Wilson.

They had their own track on this huge hill, it was awesome. But from hanging out with those guys I met Jim Chester, and he knew of places to ride. Ended up at Center Road MX a lot which is about an hour? North of charlotte of 77. Even rode with Stroupe once when he was on a KX 125, as well as Zack Bradshaw, Damon’s brother.

The best thing you can do is try to make friends with people who have private tracks.....the only way to do that is hit the races up.

Muddy Creek is not too far over in TN. which is like our very own Frozen Ocean here in NY.

Good luck!

My place in va in less than 2 hours away from asheville. But as far as like practice tracks go there aren't many. There are some good tracks less than 2 hours away in SC. My suggestion would be get up with a kid called Chris Fisher. He's the fastest local and a cool kid. Also in the winter there is an indoor series that has like 4 races in asheville.

haha yea the indoor series by victory sports in asheville...in the agricultural center...aka cattle arena. im a transplant myself jcheck, from buffalo, but damn its cold in the staging area for those indoor races. your in a tunnel and even though its usually only low thirties, the wind wips through there like nothing else and cuts through every layer of clothing you have on.

unless you can get hooked up with some of the locals, or you have the $ to build your own track, you'll probably be looking at some drive.

Joe Williams (great guy) is the promoter and has lots of contacts throughout NC, SC, TN and GA. Maybe he can hook you up with some places to ride.
